Which Gear Box????
I recently posted a thread asking for advice on a knocking noise I had on my x reg turbo 2000. I've taken it to another garage and they have discovered that there is a problem with my front diff (play in there) so rather than re build the old gear box, I'm thinking of fitting a second hand box. But which gear boxes will fit my uk spec wagon? Will the imports fit my car or what??? Need it done pretty handy so your help is very much needed.

Unless it came with a really, really, really good warranty I wouldn't touch a 2nd hand box, your more than likely looking at £300-500 for a 2nd handbox including fitting with no garrantee that it wouldn't break a couple of months down the line.
Do it properly and speak to David at API,

I just had a new front diff (crown wheel and pinion) fitted in my rally car gearbox for £500 by TEG in Carnforth. That's not much more than you will pay for an unknown second hand 'box.
